I am using this book this year that my son and D.I.L gave me for my b/day. It

has some great new recipes in it.

All the sweet Christmas cooking will start next week. The cake is made.

Hubby always cooks a turkey on Christmas day, so I am thinking of going with the

hot Christmas lunch this year, as we haven't done that for a few years. We tend to have seafood and salads because it is so hot.

Christmas eve all the family will be home so I think we might have the seafood for tea that night.

I have found a few recipes for Egg nog on google to make up for my Mum. If any of my readers have any great tips for egg nog please tell me about them. I'm thinking I should have a trail run first?

I am starting to get excited about Christmas, David and Jessica will be home on Saturday so they will have a week here before Christmas, it is going to be a full house this year just the way I like it..........

Mandy my day was so unlike yours I wish we could ahve swapped!!! I like the look of that cook book. I am not sure what we will do have to call my Brither and see what there is in the beach house and go fromk there.

Ah... those were the days, when the chn were younger and finished school a couple of weeks before Christmas, with time to bake and play and swim and watch videos (preDVD)and sleep in, now I work until 19 or 21st Dec and start to feel quite stressed about all that needs to be done. I try to choose something to 'chill out' with each day, Arvo tea or blogging etc.

About Me

I am a Christian and a Mother to seven wonderful children and grand mother to 7 sweet grand babies.
I have found that Life is a journey that doesn't always go where I thought it would. I have learnt to hang on and just go with the ride. Some times it is rough but I just hang on and it will get smoother again.
So hang on with me and come along for the ride I call LIFE.
